Tropical storm Conson is heading towards south China’s Hainan province, Quanzhou Evening News reported. The storm, developed from a tropical depression, took shape over the Pacific near the Philippines at 8 a.m. Monday. Moving at 20 to 25 miles an hour, it is estimated to arrive at the South China Sea around Wednesday evening and bring precipitation to the thirsty Hainan province.
 
The storm, also called Basyang by the Philippine agency, was located about 129 kilometers (80 miles) east of Manila, with top winds of about 111 kilometers per hour, the U.S. Navy Joint Typhoon Warning Center reported.
 
It lost power after touching land late yesterday and encountering heavy vertical wind shear, the typhoon center said. Conson made landfall near the town of Infanta and was expected to cross the island, according to an update from the Philippine agency at 11 p.m. Manila time yesterday.
